Don’t put your GP Practice at risk.

At Kidwells, we have a great deal of experience in Employment Law. We are no stranger to the pitfalls employers encounter in not having the necessary systems in place as required by Employment legislation in order to protect the rights of employees. As a result employment tribunal claims arise. Unfortunately, a GP practice could have taken steps to avoid these claims if they fulfilled the necessary requirements from the outset.

The designated team at Kidwells can provide you with necessary tools and ongoing support. We’ll ensure the smooth running of your business and protect the rights of both the employer and employee.
